Savings estimate
Estimate your diesel savings
An indicative estimate of what solar, with or without batteries, could save a site that runs on diesel generators. It is not a quotation: a site assessment is needed to confirm load, roof or land area and generator condition.
Indicative result
- Annual saving
- ₦20.4m to ₦40.7m
- Simple payback
- 1.8 to 4 years
- Diesel displaced
- 30% to 60% of about 31,800 litres a year
- Indicative system
- 50 kWp of solar
- Installed cost
- ₦74.6m to ₦81.8m
- CO₂ avoided
- About 38 tonnes a year
Diesel use, before and after
Replaced by solar 45%Still from diesel 55%
Middle case. Savings held flat in today's prices; panels lose 0.5% of output a year.
Indicative only. Results are shown as a range because installed costs, generator efficiency and the share of diesel that solar can displace vary from site to site.
